Re: prefs.dbf does not exist, fixed!

Thanks for your suggestions.... although It did not seem to fix the problem. I believe I have found a way to work around the issue. With the program already installed on the 2nd computer (with no partner entries), I deleted the whole Donor5 folder on the 2nd computer. I then copied the Donor5 folder...

Re: prefs.dbf does not exist

I copied the prefs file from the desktop where dm works to the laptop.
I then did a fresh install and tried the pack and go again... same error message... asks me to locate the file... I tried copying the file.. get the following :

"A subdirectory or file C:\donor5\data already exists".

Re: photos do not display in bulk tbird email

Maybe this is not really for the bug report section.... I did finally find a way to include a photo in the bulk email combined with Thunderbird. By attaching the photo file in the thunderbird, it shows up in the email the person receives, but not for me on the composition screen. I still would like ...

custom envelope size

I looked for info on this feature (custom size envelopes) but I only see two sizes of envelopes which are both larger than the ones I normally use. Am I missing something, or is this a possible feature to consider including? It would be very helpful for me to be able to set the size of the envelope ...
